ok, since the consensus is no glock, no glock it is.

well, i guess i'll add my :2 cents:
first of all, don't buy a glock. glocks indeed are reliable equipment in the 9mm range, but above that actually can be very dangerous. glocks above 9mm are rather prone to kb's (KABOOM). yes, they do explode. the 9mm is a smooth shooter, and a hardy weapon. relatively cheap, even. as far as a desert eagle... great for conversation and hunting, but NOT for personal defence. why? well, yes, it has a great "scare factor", but the efficiency of use is poor. the load this weapon fires is enormous. esp. in the .50 and .440 cor-bon. if you miss with your first shot, it will take you a lot longer to recover for the 2nd round. you also have to consider the collatoral damage with such a weapon. in a night encounter, the muzzle flash of the deagle is immense, which would leave both you and your assailant temporarily blind. 2 blind guys shooting in the dark isn't a good idea. you'd also have to consider its size and weight, which ovisously wouldn't be good for concealed carry. my personal choice, although a little more expensive then the mainstream handguns, is the HK. specifically, the .40. i'd suggest a full size, however for concealed carry they do make a nice compact. the .40 is a high-speed bullet, with less kick and good stopping power, unlike the .45 which is a slow bullet with more recoil (although all the hks fire fairly smoothly). the hk is a very dependable weapon (as shown in use by special forces - the usp). the newer hk models also offer a built-in keylock that's fairly hidden and easy to use, and a (IMHO) nicer slide release. the hks are very easy to field strip, still lightweight, and less prone to the kb of the larger caliber glocks. seriously, check these things out. the hks are generally more accurate, esp. for n00bs. one thing to know about both the glock and hks, due to their barrel design, you have to be rather careful with your ammunition. hk will void your warranty if you use lead bullets. a lot of people at the range use an FMJ at the bottom of each clip to keep it clean, but to be safe, use all FMJ. this is more expensive, but due to the design, lead can clog the barrel, making the firearm more suseptible to a kb. and lastly, PLEASE know how to use the firearm. i suggest you take some sort of training if you haven't already. my :2 cents: |
s&w .357 revolver, 4" barrel.
If its for home defense, get a pump 12ga shotgun. nothing in the world makes a b&e guy shit his pants faster than the sound of a shell being racked into a 12 gauge. |

oh yeah, another note on the hks. you can get just about any variation you want, left hand, right hand, sa, da, sa/da. etc.

Just throw a brick at the intruder. Guns are bad.

HK .40 caliber makes for a great concealed firearm..
:thumbsup |

as far as training, yeah, definetly will get that. It is required here before you can apply for a permit. |
Quote:
Actually...They are. With the proper paperwork and so forth anyway. |

always keep one eye closed when shooting in the dark |

HA! That training is a fucking joke. Come to Oregon for a week and I will break you in. |

HK and Beretta are both very fine weapons - but for daily carry you can't beat a snubnosed .38.

this looks a little old, but I think I can over the looks pretty fast

although, i *thought* these used 5.56x23mm... which is a controlled ammunition. the FN p90 and Five-seveN both use these calibers, which during the introduction was controlled... there's nothing else illegal about the 5-7 except it uses armor-piercing rounds. although i suppose with an ffa or whatever you could buy that stuff, too. AND get your happy 9mm glock converted to select-fire. or buy a glock 18. the only 2 ways i'd own a glock :thumbsup |

heh... yeah that old .30 cal would do wonders to a dozen burglars.
actually, if you want scare factor, get yourself a spas with collapsible stock (bonus points for the arm rest thinige). but, don't expect it to be reliable. old italian design they use in stuff like terminator 2, jurassic park and stuff. poor attempt at pump/semi shotgun. but the binelli m1 convertible with pistol grip and mil-spec ring sights.. perfection :):) load round 1 non-lethal, the other 6 lethal rounds. if the first round doesn't drop em, switch over to semi and let em have 6 buckshot rounds in less than 3 seconds. you need pump for non-lethal tho, shells won't eject from an auto. |

ooh! a p90? a p90? yummy yummy.... wait, do you know if the have a "civilian" version of the G36 yet? was looking at getting a "sportster", but after the success of that thing, thought maybe i'd go that route instead. or an aug, but those are so damn expensive, and just kinda more the "neat" factor. those g36's are unstoppable. |

heheh, was jsut about say, JSUT DON'T GET A BERRETTA!!!! POS! I speak from the experince of others & myself(I own two) its a lousy design, they jam easily & randomly. I have to buy expensive ammo, just to get faily decent results from it, & i wanted to buy expensive ammo I do it for one of my larger cal. guns. Home defense, hands down its the 12 gauge. + shooting skeet, & jackrabbits is fun too. they are cheap, effective, & easy to aim. For an entry level hand gun go with a .38 revolver, with the ported barrel. You can shoot cheap .38 shells when you target shoot, & the much more expensive .357 for home defense. Revolvers are far more rugged & dependable, pretty fucken hard to break a good revolver, where as must semi have @ least 50% plastic, 10 times the parts dont have to worry about springs in the clips wearing out, & no jams. |
This sig comes with a gernade launcher

anything steyr seems to be incredibly high. that tmp is pretty cool too, but only if you have a suppressor on it ;P. i missed out, i was going to go to a local class on the mp5. they had several variations, i *think* of which included the sd. you paid a fairly small price, and bought like 1000 rds, and you were good to go. i shoulda gone.
think they'll make us little folks a g36? might be a major redesign with the collapsable stock, tho. i doubt an aug would be a bad choice by any means, but i always just thought of it like more expensive "sportster". |
Okay, the majority opinion is either a shotgun or a SIG?
I would be more inclined to get the SIG....The question is, which SIG should I get? |
Quote:
Have a 4x50 red dot scope hanging off to the left side of the gun for rought spotting, & then a 9-20 x50 leipould on top. the hand rest is simular,but has bipod attached. took the lazer off because it sucked @ was never accurate @ the distances I shoot @. |
The .38 is a great entry level if you're a 96 pound woman.

Get the SIG229 - it shoots multiple calibers and SIGs are extremely reliable. I would first suggest, however, a revolver for ultimate reliability - read: subnosed .38 SW. lightweight versions.

bigger teh .cal the more $, ammo isnt cheap. Wher are you located, if your in CA your fucked you bought you gun 3 years too late, & certainly 3 months too late for a handgun. goto a gunshow. Pick up a gun that wont be registered in your name. If you think your gonna keep this thing in your car & your in a state like CA, your asking for trouble there too |
it sucks, there's no concealed carry, not even a permit in my state :(
they're trying to get that handled tho, and possibly allow everyone to cc. yay! |

I know CA is way liberal, but I always thought it was a gun friendly state? |
